The Twin Cities have right to feel
more than proud over the exhibit made
by local artists. Not few fine oil paint
ingS and water-colOr sketches executed
in st. Paul and Minneapolis are on eX-
hlbition. Among the finest are the fol-
lowing: Three portraits-of j. w. Bass
and wife and the little son of Hon. w.
Il. Merriam. Another beautiful study
is view of Mendoza, with Fort Smell
ing i'll the background. This is real
treasure, and all who see it are eSpeci-
tasty coloring of the picture. Miss Fitz-
patrick, of st. Paul, is the artist. Z.
Fournier, Mr.. Hays, Mr.. Clark, Miss
Carr and Mr.. and Mrs. Smith. of Mime
apolis, and Vincent de Guernon. Mrs.

One of the greatest features of the fair
will be Machinery Day, Wednesday,
Sept. IA. On this day ali the exhibitors

Sf.SIl I'l0ISttSU ny a Udiiu. 1lic pdIdUt
will be in charge of Superintendent
Bushnell, Col. j. A. Collin and Col. j.
II. Burwell, marshals, and the line will
be formed at II O'Clock.
Horses, cattle, and indeed everything
in the agricultural line, seems to be
coming in with so great rapidity that it
is almost impossible to take care Of it as
it arrives.
WILL BE LIGHTED MONDAY.
''In my opinion" said w. A. Van
Slyke to GLOBE reporter, 1.-The person
who walks up Third street any evening
next week will have as vivid concep-
ton of fairy land as can possibly be
given. Everything is now in good shape
and the illumination will begin on Mon
day evening next and will continue for
the balance of the week. Third street,
from Sibley to Bridge square, will be
swept every evening, and from 7:30
o'clock until 1920 all vehicles
will be kept off from it.
The Great Western, Metropolitan and
First regiment bands have been secured,
and will be stationed at intervals along
the street. The Robert street bridge
will be closed to vehicles, and all such
that cross the Wabasha bridge will turn
to the left and go up Third street. This
is done so that the people may have an
opportunity to view the magnificent IL
Nominations in Bridge square. We
might have expended more money, but
| don't believe we could have had finer
display even with great deal greater
expenditure
